F53 Brake Advice
I am looking to replace the brake system on our 1996 Dolphin 535 (Ford F53), as the pads are worn and have begun to gouge the rear rotors. Not to mention the entire system is old, so I want to replace...

Drove 1600+ miles to Colorado and I'm very happy with the new ride and braking, although I still feel the braking can be improved (still think I have air somewhere in the lines). If I pump the brakes twice, this motorhome will stop as fast as my pickup... which is much better braking than I ever expected in this thing... problem is, it takes two little pumps to get that full braking. Without pumping I still have good brakes, but the pedal travels and is nowhere near as effective stopping.
On a side note.... I thought we were going to flip over coming into Denver on I70. The cross winds were so strong I had the wheel turned 90 degrees and was still getting pushed into the other lane... I could literally feel the tires rolling from the pressure. It was crazy.
